Equipment
- Chopping board
- Sharp knife
- Small mixing bowl
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp carrots finely chopped
- 1 tbsp cucumber finely chopped
- A few leaves of fresh spinach finely chopped
- 1 tsp bell pepper finely chopped
- A sprinkle of fresh parsley finely chopped
Instructions
- Prepare the Veggies: Begin by washing all your vegetables thoroughly. We want them as fresh and clean as can be for our little munchers.
- Chop the Carrots: Finely chop the carrots into small, bite-sized pieces. Carrots are a great source of vitamin A, which is excellent for hamster vision.
- Cucumber Next: Move on to the cucumber, making sure to remove the seeds. Chop it finely. Cucumbers are wonderfully hydrating and low in calories.
- Spinach Time: Finely chop a few leaves of spinach. This leafy green is a powerhouse of nutrients, but remember to give it in moderation.
- Add Bell Pepper: Finely chop the bell pepper. It’s a great source of vitamins A and C, and most hamsters love the taste!
- Parsley for Flavor: Finally, add a sprinkle of finely chopped fresh parsley. It's not just for flavor; parsley is good for digestion too.
- Mix It Up: Gently mix all the chopped veggies in your bowl. It should look like a colorful little garden!
- Serving: Offer a small spoonful of the Whisker-Twitcher's Veggie Garden Mix to your hamster. This treat should be part of a balanced diet.
- Store Any Leftovers: If you have leftovers, they can be stored in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 24 hours.
